Yeah we're trying to save their assets but with this care things will go quickly. It is really hard. Elderly care needs to be improved in the US. Yes, my parents grew up in multigenerational households. Now everyone splits up and moves around. Thank you.

This is exactly why I'm a chitlib. I believe in healthcare for everyone, and the only way that happens is taxing the fuk out of ppl. Sad, but true. The alternative is to keep doing what we are doing and let ppl die while some of these rich fuks make billions. If they can piss away money on wars, surely they could piss it away taking care of ppl. Not to mention that hiring caregivers creates jobs for people, and there is always a need for that. Seems a no brainer to me.

All the boomers are getting old and will need help.

It's always a jogger.

Individuals mostly cannot organize well to prepare for this, and a public program can solve elderly care

Then, it is a job where you can expect standard of treatment

In the free for all like a lot of the modern world, old people like this often deserve punishment on top of lack of extra support for what society lets them get away with.

If I have alzheimers.. just fukn kill me

and staying in a place like that is depressing as it is.. then getting attacked while living in literal hell

Munchausen by proxy?

All I see is an old woman trying to throttle & assault a caregiver & the caregiver defending herself. She is not putting the boots in when she is down, she is trying to restrain her hands-of course as soon as that happens it conveniently stops filming & it only joins in progress without showing the start.

Sadly Dementia makes old people go violent often-my nan was one of the nicest, peaceful people you could ever meet, but she ended up in a home & when my dad went there eventually she started punching him & often thought she was her father-no idea if her father was violent to her when she was young & that is why she was lashing out, or just the disease.

They also are so far gone their power levels are nothing like their age/condition-my nan could barely walk for decades, yet she would get up in the care home & dance around the room, along with talking about aliens & ghosts that were visiting her & my dad said her punch was more like a 40 year old mans than an eighty something woman. So while the level used by the nurse might look extreme, it might be required.

Maybe rather than standing there filming this June woman could have helped her colleague subdue the woman more peacefully. I know there is abuse in homes-it has been filmed by undercover reporters here in the UK & maybe she does abuse residents, but that piece of film is not proof of that.

Great analogy. It's definitely not the easiest job but it doesn't give them the right to abuse the elderly. If they can't stand the work then get another ****ing job. People who work in aged care but abuse the people they're supposed to be looking after are total kunts.

Edit: watched the video after the comment above. Not the easiest situation to assess.

Jimbob you've completely lost me lately, I can assure you 90 year old people(like the woman in the video), let alone women do not "punch like 40 year old men"

There is never an excuse to man-handle an elderly person especially in a hospice setting, 99% of them can't hardly walk let alone be a threat to anyone



Legit not sheriff

why would anyone want to send their parents to elder care?

My dad was a big dude & he couldn't believe that his mother could punch him or that she could punch so hard. She had varicose veins & all sorts of leg problems & was being pushed around in a wheelchair for the last decade of her life or so if she went anywhere outside & could barely make it to the kitchen & back. Yet in the care home in her eighties she was up & dancing around-that is the extent to which their mind is overtaken.

Sadly the staff often have no choice but to restrain or fight back, as I said if this June woman had actually helped her colleague rather than filming, they would have been able to do it without it getting so physical. Again, I saw nothing in that clip but somebody trying to restrain a resident trying to assault them.

It gets to a point where you cannot cope mentally-again with my nan, my aunt who was her daughter put up with it for years-when she went on holiday my dad who was her son looked after her at their house & in the night she was getting up, crapping herself & throwing it everywhere/smearing it over herself/in her hair & even on him & clearly although she denied it my aunt must have been putting up with that for years. It gets to a point especially as you are in your mid 50's or nearly 60 that you can no longer do it physically or mentally.

why can't you bathe/wash your mother down yourself??? as in with a cloth and bucket bedside?

you could just put your mother on some "chux" if you're worried about her soiling herself.

you can just youtube how to put one underneath your mother.

you sound lazy as fuk.......my dad has this...my mom has that.

she bathed and cleaned your when you were younger.

I believe Nurses and Police officers are some of the sickest individuals. Not all of them, but these professions attract some evil mfs.
My mother worked as a nurse in the 80’s but quit after 2 years because of sht like this..

- elderly patients crying in their rooms because no one will change them for 10+ hours so they just sit there in waste.
- being stole from
- being manhandled for walking slow
- not being showered for days on end

Horrible sht. And I don’t know why but sloots who are nurses always have the worst vibes. Like criminal vibes. Maybe that’s just me though

Rather rope then enter assisted living

Anyone got an uncencosered video version without the pixels blocked out?
